Wal-Mart to Create 10,000 New Jobs for 2017

Looks like there will be plenty of job opportunities this year at Wal-Mart as they will be adding significantly to their work force in 2017.  

NJ.com reports that the company will be hiring 10,000 additional jobs across the country at 59 new, expanded or relocated stores. For those who are unaware, the company also owns Sam's Club. We have yet to get specific details about which stores will see an employee increase this year, but we're willing to bet it'll be the brand new Wal-Mart coming to EHT!

In addition to Wal-Mart employees, the company is/has hired over 24,000 construction workers for the above mentioned store expansions and remodeling.

Wal-Mart has over 80 stores in the state currently, with over 15 of those being in South Jersey, plus a brand new super-center coming to Pleasantville soon!
